Re: Is there anything I can do about my manager?

Search for help in HR-if you have, document the things that have happened(you may need that later) why not move to another dept if it will bring you some stress relief.

But don't give up and let it all be put back onto you. if you don't stand up for your self--who will. Make sure he has not put crap in your personal file that can chase you to your next jobs, you have a right to see your own file just follow the requirments to do so. Don't bring up hassrament issue/words just yet. Be calm/cool as you figure/investigate things out as they may just shut doors, or worse be a at will employer as are more and just fire you. But again make sure you have documentaion for later, gather that slowly/quitely...

You cant change the way the wind blow's, but you can change the angle of your sail to take you somewhere else!!

Re: Is there anything I can do about my manager?

I would wager he has a friend amongst executives so not a good idea to go against him unless you want to lose a job. People who are useless but are at management level at work normally have connections higher up which is how they got the job in the first place. Been in similar situations myself

Sometimes in life you gotta endure, you will still need his reference when you leave (although you have obviously endagered that option)

Re: Is there anything I can do about my manager?

I confronted my manager recently. Told him i didn't have confidence in him. brought up some things that were pissing me off. am still getting crap from another manager today, so it seems when i confronted my manager he didn't even say anything to tell the other manager to stop. was pissed off the rest of the day and i ended up angering customers.

i would say he is friends with one manager he reports to, and ive heard that she took his side the last time someone from our department brought anything up so i dont have confidence in her that she will do anything.

i know from other employees that he has had at least one encounter with our union and i don't have any way to prove that he has tried to get me to work in another area other than what i experienced.

not really concerned with a reference - i have enough confidence in my own reputation.
